Who We Are

The Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust (HWDT) is a small charity based in Tobermory on the Isle of Mull, Scotland. We currently employ ten Members of Staff and several seasonal employees, making us one of the largest employers on Mull and Iona and a significant contributor to the local economy.  HWDT is also grateful to a number of long-term and seasonal Volunteers.

HWDT is well-supported by a full Board of Trustees and represented by our Patrons. HWDT also benefits greatly from the knowledge and experience of our Scientific Committee.
